It was a small town and often with the help of witchcraft we, have the luxury to move around like an invisible Man. It was fun to mess with people and have the emerald app only to fight against my own. Wolves could be pretty stupid and they had no idea about how he was messing up with their lives daily especially with the royal's mate. So much for being called the most powerful creatures.
It was one of his favourite pastimes to go around the town invisible to them all and cause havoc around. One of those pastimes were also to be invisible and follow Adaline. It was easier to keep an eye on her a given that she was a tiny little human who had fallen herself making sure that his plans to go down the drain.
He heard the conversation in between them. Adeline had thought of another way to confront Xavier about the whole drama even after multiple times he had compelled her. It always managed to surprise him at how she was good at getting out of his compulsion sooner than I thought for stopping every time he took longer but every time she also managed to get out of it safe and sound. Given his age and the blood that was in his veins, it was easy for him to compel anyone that did not have a royal or a very strong bloodline and Adaline was a mere human. No one of importance and someone who could easily be manipulated and turned into a bloody slave or a sacrificial lamb if he wanted to. But that girl was meant for something far more important and there was nothing anyone could do about it.
Yet she always managed to pull herself out of compulsion and the idiot did not even realise that were her feelings.
But she had talked to Xavier and he could practically hear through her voice and imagine the smile she had on her face while she talked to him. The bond and the pregnancy for bringing them closer and it was not working in his favour. Own feelings were also adding more to the game than he thought or She had called him in a loving voice and it was clear that the fear he had once instilled in her for Xavier had vanished into the thin air. That only meant one thing, the baby inside her was growing stronger day by day and he was the immunity shield that she had towards his compulsion.
He sipped his blood from the silver goblet. This had been for centuries and his family.
He sighed as he placed the glass back on the side table next to him. Adaline was very brave to do what she had done but given that she knew nothing about him it was easy for her to do so. It was going to be a problem for him if she continued to act against his wishes and that little thing kept on providing her with the immunity that he had.
"Adrian," he called the servant and he appeared, his footsteps let his master know that he was right behind him with his hat bowed ready for him to command, "Follow the father too. I do not want him home before my plans are completed." He then changed his words, "In fact keep an eye on all her friends. No one should even call text her before all of it is completed. She should have the help of No one." His servant was gone as he felt no one in the room any longer.
She was not marked, which allowed him to manipulate and compelled her according to his wishes because when she would be marked by a royal-like him and a dominant alpha it would be impossible for him to get his hands on her without having her mate know that she was in danger.
Not having the mark was an opportunity for him and he could not miss it because it would be impossible to get through with the next Royal born. So it was obvious that whatever he had for his plans for the dearest Adaline he had to hurry up.
He sighed and stood up. Within movements, he reached to his beloved's room and sighed once again looking at her. "You look so beautiful my love. Even though you are dead in the truest of the way you still manage to Take My breath away." He sighed blissfully. She was a true vampire beauty. Her pale skin and dark black hair along with the piercing red eyes were killers from anyone. Lethal, as one would say. But unfortunately for him, those were closed for the longest time passed.
When he had first seen her, he remembered being so entrapped with her beauty that he could not help but think about her entire day before deciding that it was time to make her his.
She was a little witch. An apprentice to be exact but that not matter to him because we have decided that these little women were going to be his for his entire life.
He leaned down and kissed her lips. "Ah. . . beautiful Isla. . . my Isla. . ." The beautiful woman was lying in a coffin with her hands on her stomach.
He had never been more thankful to anyone more than his mate, Isla, a witch.
He had first been distasteful towards the whole idea of having a half-witch for himself as a mate but half which is worth more liable to work through the transaction of turning into a vampire and having remain their capabilities from before.
This was exactly what Isla had done. After becoming a vampire she still had a few magical capabilities from before.
He caressed her skin. The milky skin that beloved to feed on. It was related to the marks that he had of things out for blood from. Her blood had always given him magical properties for a few moments, hours at most whenever he fed on her.
Isla was dead. Truly she was, not just in vampirical terms when he laughed about the entire situation was that he had her books which gave him a spell to bring her back.
"Don't you worry," he sighed blissfully, "I would bring you back my love? Back to the throne where we come from. Everything but the back to its rightful place as you would be back next to me." He has her smile, his teeth that were elongated into fangs were thirsty for her blood. The dream to once again sync has fine into her skin was going to come true after all.
The only thing that ever needed was a mate of a mortal enemy.
The mortal enemy for him were the Lycans.
The mate of whom was right in his palm. The mate of whom had been stupid enough to walk right into the trap weaved by him.
***********
He was watching her as she left home, following her to the place she wanted to go to. Adeline, the human mate of the Lycan prince was walking along without any kind of protection. It was stupid for Rivera to assume that nothing bad would ever happen to have her given that it was a town filled with werewolves.
How funny it was that they were the very well that had happened to exclude Adeline and make her a stranger when she might rule the entire species.
Just like every human in town was excluded from their activities and Adeline was too and she felt it. Their Alpha had commanded them that until and unless the human knew who Xavier was and what she meant to their community she could not be raised with the knowledge of being included in any kind of rituals or gatherings.
How fun it would be that by the time they would return Adeline would be long gone? If there was anything that he could regret at this moment was that he was not the shapeshifting creature and could not watch the Lycan prince fall to his demise of losing his mate and child.
Just like they had taken him, he would make sure to take theirs. It was only fair for him to do. An eye for an eye and a mate for a . . .mate.
Werewolves, who could easily compact and manipulated away from protecting Adaline and giving in to their demands. But then again Xavier did not know about his existence in the very town that he and his family along with his mate resided in. They had assumed it to be too safe and ditch the security detail.
He would love to see the faces when the surprise would come that Adaline had been under his compulsion all along while they were playing all happy family.
The only thing now left to do was give the final touch to the finale that would derive Adaline out of the town.
The first part of his plan will be completed then.
